"IDE as tool for everything" is what's prehistoric, at this point.
- pjmlp 4y agoSure, some people enjoy being stuck with workflows born out of phosphor terminals.
- xigoi 4y agoDo you have any other workflow that allows so much programmability and composability while being lightweight and cross-platform?
- pjmlp 4y agoYou mean the "cross platform" as long it is UNIX?
- the_gipsy 4y agoEnjoy duplicating your workflows anyway for CI. Or do you make a release by clicking the play button in your IDE?
- pjmlp 4y agoSomeone apparently isn't aware that IDEs can consume build scripts as project definitions. I don't duplicate anything, my CI/CD pipelines consume MSBuild, Ant, Gradle, Maven, CMake, XCode, package.json, gulp, webpack files just as easy as my IDEs.
- xigoi 4y agoWindows has WSL. Is there any other major non-Unix platform?
- pjmlp 4y agoGame consoles, with their Windows based IDEs. Mainframes and embedded OSes, the latter with much more market share than all desktops together.
- the_gipsy 4y agoSo why don't you program in VR then? Why not generate CI jobs from an ML model?
- pjmlp 4y agoGraphical IDEs are good enough. Xerox PARC already showed how.
